Peace Now Blames PM for 'Price Tag'

Chairman Yariv Oppenheimer of the left-wing Shalom Achshav (Peace Now) organization responded, Tuesday morning, to vandalism at the home of Peace Now activist Hagit Afran by saying, "The responsibility for 'price tag' activity rests on the shoulders of [Prime Minister Binyamin] Netanyahu." The words 'price tag' were among those sprayed on a staircase in the building where Afran lives.

Oppenheimer added, "The incitement and harsh words of members of the coalition in favor of the illegal outposts and against the judicial system and left-wing organizations provides backing to the attacker."
